Stepping Stones

Hop! Jump! Leap! Balance stepping stones are a fun way to promote physical activity, provide opportunities for development and growth, and inspire creative play.

Stepping stones provide the following benefits:

  • Promote active play and physical activity
  • Develop agility, balance, and coordination
  • Improve gross motor skills
  • Inspire imagination and creativity through open ended, flexible play
  • Provide opportunities for challenges and confidence-building.

The set includes 12 stones of varying sizes. The lightweight, space-saving design allows the pieces to stack on top of each other and store in the provided bag when not in use.

Stepping stones are made of a durable, slip-resistant polypropylene material and have a thick and sturdy rubber bottom. The maximum weight limit is 220 pounds, so the stepping stones can be used by people across a range of ages and sizes.



Funding for the Stepping Stones kits was provided by Nova Scotia Health Community Health Boards Eastern Zone members: East Cape Breton County Community Health Board, Northside the Lakes Community Health Board, and Central Cape Breton County Community Health Board.

All borrowers must complete and sign an equipment loan form at the time of check out which covers the risk of harm or injury which may occur as a result of using the equipment.
